Attention fellow former employees of the #MuseumOfScienceAndIndustry (Chicago, get over it the rest of you)

There is a deeeeeeeeep cut in the latest #TechnologyConnections video.

No, I'm not going to explain it. If you want to learn, you will have to go visit #MSI and the landings of its Green Staircase.

Photo of the Day 18th March 2026.

A replica of the Avro Avroplane, an experimental tri-plane built and flown by Alliott Verdon-Roe, later founder of Avro.
This was on display in the Aero-Space Hall of the Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester, but was moved to the Avro Museum on the site of the old Avro factory and airfield in Woodford when that part of MOSI closed.

On This Day 24th February 2015.

G-AWZP, Hawker Siddeley HS121 Trident 3B (nose and forward fuselage only), British Airways, on display at the Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI), Manchester, 24th February 2015.
I started spotting just a few months after the last of these was retired by BritishAirways, so never saw any of these flying - most of the ones I saw were on fire dumps, or used as instructional airframes, or in museums, which I've always been a bit gutted about.
